Item 2.05. Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.

On June 22, 2015, the Board of Directors of PAREXEL International Corporation (the “Company”) approved a plan to restructure its operations to improve the productivity and efficiency of the Company, simplify the organization, and streamline decision-making, thereby enhancing client engagement. The restructuring initiative is company wide. These actions are expected to result in pre-tax charges in the range of $35 to $45 million. The Company expects to record a pre-tax charge in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015 in the range of $20 million to $30 million, with the remainder of the charges to be incurred over the course of the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016 (“Fiscal Year 2016”) . The Company expects that approximately $33 million to $43 million of the charges will result in future cash expenditures. The charges will include approximately $30 million to $40 million in employee separation costs and approximately $5 million in other one-time costs. The Company anticipates to complete restructuring activities by the end of June 2016, and expects the charges to result in annual pre-tax savings of approximately $20 million to $30 million over the course of Fiscal Year 2016 and approximately $50 million to $60 million when fully completed.

The Company issued a press release on June 23, 2015 announcing this restructuring. The full text of the press release issued in connection with the restructuring announcement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
